A very royal welcome: Wayne and Coleen treated to extraordinary airport escort from plane after jetting in from £30,000 Dubai trip

Home James: Wayne Rooney steps into his waiting limousine while an airport officials stows his luggage
He's been caught cheating on his pregnant wife with a prostitute, but when you're a pampered football star called Wayne Rooney, you still get red carpet treatment.
Yesterday Rooney was given extraordinary treatment when he jetted in with Coleen from their £30,000 holiday in Dubai.
He was greeted by airport bosses on the tarmac and whisked through all the normal formalities, leaving fellow passengers shocked and disgusted. One said: 'Who does he think he is'?

The £250,000 a week Manchester United star stepped from the Emirates A380 super jumbo at Manchester airport and then:
Strolled 50 yards from the plane to a waiting limousine where he helped stow his luggage inside.
Sped off with an official airport 4x4 escort vehicle leading the way.
Escaped the usual delays with the Customs queue with a private check of his and Coleen's travel documents.
Airport officials admitted that Rooney, 25, and Coleen had been treated exactly the same as members of the Royal Family.
A duty manager told the Sunday Mirror: 'Mr Rooney completed all his obligations before leaving the airport. This was the same protocol we would use for members of the Royal Family or other VIPs.
'This is used when there is the possibility of an individual's liberties being infringed. We allowed him unimpeded progress around the airport.'

As their fellow passengers walked to the baggage carousel and Customs area, the couple were chauffeured back to their £4.5 million mansion .
Twenty minutes later Rooney sped off in his Audi RS4 to watch his team beat Spurs 2-0 at Old Trafford.
When he got to the ground he was surrounded by club security officials who ushered him into his seat where he happily signed autographs and spoke to England manager Fabio Capello who was watching the game.
Rooney had spent the last five days in Dubai sunbathing and resting an injured ankle at the seven-star BurjAl Arab hotel - one of the world's dearest.
He spent a lot time at the pool playing happy families with Coleen after it was revealed he had romped with escort girls jenny Thompson and Helen Woods in a hotel while she was pregnant.

Coleen is reported to have paid £1,000 to have a different designed bikini to wear every day. Drinks like vodka cocktails cost £18 a time.
It's been a traumatic fortnight for Britain's highest-paid footballer who was branded a 'whore' by angry fans and a hate mob swooped on his home when he announced he was quitting the Red Devils.
Days later he did a U-turn and signed a five-year mega deal, but supporters are still furious with him.
One message on the club forum said: 'He should have been in rehab 24/7 to nurture his ankle. Instead he was in Dubai sunbathing.
'It's hard to feel sorry for spoilt millionaire brats.'
Another fan from Sweden wrote: 'He's nothing but a sack of lard waiting to explode.'
Meanwhile, Coleen is preparing a first birthday party for son Kai on Tuesday.
Catering vans have been seen at the house with a marquee in the grounds.
